Dust Production and Particle Acceleration in Supernova 1987A Revealed with ALMA
R. Indebetouw, M. Matsuura, E. Dwek +23
Supernova (SN) explosions are crucial engines driving the evolution of galaxies by shock heating gas, increasing the metallicity, creating dust, and accelerating energetic particle…
Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernovae and Long-Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts Have Similar Host Galaxies
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +27
We present optical spectroscopy and optical/near-IR photometry of 31 host galaxies of hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), including 15 events from the Pan-STARRS1 Mediu…
Systematic Uncertainties Associated with the Cosmological Analysis of the First Pan-STARRS1 Type Ia Supernova Sample
D. Scolnic, A. Rest, A. Riess +46
We probe the systematic uncertainties from 113 Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) in the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) sample along with 197 SN Ia from a combination of low-redshift surveys. The compan…
The UV-bright, Slowly Declining Transient PS1-11af as a Partial Tidal Disruption Event
R. Chornock, E. Berger, S. Gezari +34
We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af, which was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) ban…
Carbon Monoxide in the Cold Debris of Supernova 1987A
J. Kamenetzky, R. McCray, R. Indebetouw +27
We report spectroscopic and imaging observations of rotational transitions of cold CO and SiO in the ejecta of SN1987A, the first such emission detected in a supernova remnant. In…
The Fast and Furious Decay of the Peculiar Type Ic Supernova 2005ek
M. R. Drout, A. M. Soderberg, P. A. Mazzali +21
We present extensive multi-wavelength observations of the extremely rapidly declining Type Ic supernova, SN 2005ek. Reaching a peak magnitude of M_R = -17.3 and decaying by ~3 mag…
